with Microsoft Office 2007© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall4 Create and Use a Form A form is an Access object in which fields are laid out in a visually attractive format. Forms display only one record at a time. New forms can be used immediately or can be modified. Records edited or created in a form automatically update underlying table or tables.

with Microsoft Office 2007© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall5 Create and Use a Form Open table (data source). On Ribbon, click Create tab. In Forms group, click Form button to create a simple top-to-bottom format for form. To enter data, view must be changed to Form view.

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall7 Create a Form Access form –object with which you can enter, edit, or display data from a table or a query –used to control access to the data –some display one record at a time and are useful for data entry Simple forms created quickly with Form tool

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall9 Use a Form to Add and Delete Records Records can be located and deleted using a form. To prevent data errors a single-record form can be used to add and delete records. Forms are based on or bound to a table where the records are stored. –Data entered into a form can be viewed in the table and vice versa.

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall12 Create a Form by Using the Form Wizard A form should be planned for the individuals entering or viewing the records. The Form Wizard will create a form quickly giving you more flexibility. You select: –fields to include –style to apply –layout

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall15 Modify a Form in Design View and Layout View You can modify forms in Design view and in Layout view. Design view provides a detailed structure of the form, but not the underlying data. Layout view provides a quick way to change the form’s design.

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall16 Modify a Form in Design View and Layout View Design view sections –Form Header –Detail –Form Footer Each section is designated by a bar called a section bar.

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall17 Modify a Form in Design View and Layout View Controls –Display data, perform actions, and enable you to view and work with information. –Text box control is the most commonly used. Bound controls display data from the underlying table. Unbound controls have no source of data.

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall18 Modify a Form in Design View and Layout View Layout view –Used to change the form’s control layout, which is the grouped arrangement of controls on a form –Provides a quick way to add or move content

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall22 Filter Records Filter By Form command –Filters records in a form based on one or more fields –Can filter based on more than one value in the same field –Provides more flexibility than Filter By Selection when your answer requires matching multiple values

with Microsoft Office 2007 Introductory© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall24 Create a Report by Using the Report Tool Report: a database object –Summarizes fields and records from table or query –Consists of information pulled from record source and report design Record source: the underlying data in tables and queries
